We start off talking about Elephantes, then go on to cultural appropriation, then to Rukis. Forum sites are an intriguing outlet of conversation.

People like that are always going to exist in society, and there's nothing that can really be done about it. The best thing to be done is to shrug them off. If we don't feed them attention, then maybe they'll get bored.

I also chose Forest Sage Ruki. I really appreciate the detail that went into that one.

It's the internet, people are gonna get offended by everything. It's quite sad, really. There's more important things to worry about than whether a pet sim website is releasing culturally appropriated virtual clothes.

Pyramids is fun, but it's agonizing when you have one card left over that you can't remove.

It didn't happen today, but I've been knocked off of the bronze trophy score countless times before it gave me the trophy.

Also, I have high scores in games that would've earned me a trophy had I done them on the 1st of the month, but I couldn't replicate the scores.

The struggles of being a trophy hoarder, I guess.

Maraquan Lutari. It was an easy choice for me. That combo is gorgeous.

Toy looks really well done in my opinion!

As for the outfit... Someone had a lot of fun drawing that, I'm sure.

This is why I didn't hate on the Beta theme on that other thread. It showed a lot of promise, and I knew they would correct the issues people had. This is turning out great. I just hoped it would've been farther along by now.

There's an extension called Ruffle, which I was hoping would be further along than it is when Flash was removed. It unfortunately doesn't support ActionScript 3, which many of the things on Neopets use. I don't know about Tarla's, I've never tried. Only thing I know is Ruffle works on Gormball, so it may work on Tarla's if it doesn't use AS3.

so i went ahead and painted doideag! she's my first pet painted in 2021! and the wings actually look very nice when they're on a nonwhite background!

Yeah, you're right! I retract what I said about the wings earlier, cause they look great here. I quite like the overall design when it's not on the plain background.

If they're a new user, they probably had no idea what it was worth and just threw a price on it themselves. I'd feel bad about something like that too, if I were in your place. It's nice when people do the right thing, even if they don't have to.

The wings on the Maractite Buzz look very poorly optimized. Throws the whole color off for me.

These boon options are trash, so I'll go Awakened. I don't know if I'll get around to doing the battles, but hey.

Unpopular opinion, but... this was long overdue. Flash is horribly outdated to the point of it being a security risk. Neopets should have been updated long ago, rather than moments before the deadline. Now many of the site features aren't working properly because of that.

I actually prefer the lighter wood, it stands out more. It honestly might be my new favorite Woodland neopet. It's so cute! But of course, I'm weird and like flowers as a guy, so that might be influencing me.

Man, the artists have been on point with the outfits.

I'm not sure how I feel about Steampunk... why is one of the eyes sticking out?

That outfit is super cute though!

Welcome Jayne, missfireside, and isabelle888253, it's nice to have some new members in the community.

I feel like some people will inherently hate it because it's not what they've been used to for the past 20 odd years, but it honestly is better. People just need time to adjust to it. I'm sure they'll hear the critiques and improve it further, but so far I'm excited for how it's going to turn out. Flash was horribly outdated, and I see potential here.

Nothing funny or amusing comes to mind when I look at these food choices, so... [insert witty comment here]

I hope everyone has a great 2021!

I don't really like any of the Thieves boons, so I'll go with Seekers as well. Probably won't do the 10 battles anyway, but hey.

Oh never mind, I chose too late. Good luck to everyone then!

I keep forgetting to get on Neopets... Dunno what's going on with STFP, but I'll take it.

Nigel the Chia charges 20 NP as commission.

Summary : You had 8495 NP. After 6 successful transactions, you have 590475.

Unbelievable. I come back after over a month of not doing dailies, and get this on my first day. What luck!

I'm trying for a Mosaic Grarrl again. Secre found one UFA like a month ago, but that was after I had left. Maybe luck will come through this time.

I dunno, probably reaching a 6th line of game trophies. It's funny cause I don't consider myself that good at games. Other than that, it was cool to finally replace all my awfully named pets with better ones. As for 2021, I don't have any Neo goals set. I don't allocate my time to Neopets anymore. I just like being a part of this community.

I live in the US, I don't even want to get together to be honest. Many of my family members are insisting on celebrating Christmas, cause most people here don't take it seriously. My sister came down with covid, and her daughter (my niece) has no immune system, so that's what I'm concerned about. My grandparents are really afraid of going to any gatherings, and I don't blame them. Then my brother and an uncle and aunt are like "nothing's gonna happen lol let's just celebrate it".
